Yesterday I decided to make a zine called <i>This is Not a Zine</i>, based on the works of Keri Smith, who I adore. I plan to have twenty-five "assignments" in it, and I've written seventeen of them so far. I'm hoping to knock out the rest and do layout today.

I'm just getting started on the first issue of my new perzine, Reclusive Obscenities. It's going to be on the abortion I had last month. It was my first and quite a traumatic experience even though I felt no emotional connection to the fetus at all. It's a topic I feel I need to write about and I'm really excited about the prospect of this new zine all around.

Right now I'm working on quite a few things!<br />
<br />
The thing I've been working on for the longest is a humorous comic/art zine with my boyfriend. Pretty much all we have is a (probably illegally) photocopied of the cover of a religious pamphlet called "Who Touched Me?" from the library we work at and a few drawings I did. It seems to be that he's the one who comes up with the ideas and then I'm the one who gets drunk and draws them. I have a feeling this won't be done until like 5 years from…

<br />
I've also been working on a literary zine of short prose about my current relationship. I've been working on it since the mid summer and it's been through about a million edits. Hollis, a friend of mine who used to do zines (maybe some of you remember her, I think she was on Pander?) and I got in touch and are supposed to do a split. I have 9 vignettes finished and it feels pretty complete, and I'm really happy with it, but at the same time I'm fucking terrified of putting it out there since it's so personal. So I'm grappling with that right now.<br />
<br />
And the latest thing I'm working on is my distro! I've posted about it, so I'm sure you've all heard enough by now. At this stage I'm ordering more zines, making little databases and setting things up. I'm going to purchase the domain in the upcoming weeks and get the website up and running, though I'm not shooting for it to be open until Mid-January. I have about 11 zines I'll be selling as of right now and a lot more I'm interested in. I'm psyched!<br />

right now I'm working on a zine about lying. I kept a record of how many times I lied in a given day, how many of those lies were necessary, etc. I'm also including a few submissions.

-Working (sort of) on my perzine, untitled as of now. It's about my dating experience as a disabled individual, and my relationship now with my boyfriend, who is also disabled.<br />
<br />
-FINALLY getting my laptop fixed so I can work on my distro. After my boyfriend left (he lives in California and was here for a two-month visit), I discovered my laptop had a virus. And I thought I lost all my files. But nope - my dad is kind of a computer genius, and got me up and running again.<br />

* Doing too much overtime at work<br />
* Working on articles for Ynfytyn which have been hanging around since the summer. I don't know how many issues it will turn out to make, but definitely at least 2<br />
* Continuing slowly with the Diana Wynne Jones one, I'm not always in the mood to write essays<br />
* Roman Emperors, the good, the bad and the ugly. I've got 3/4 of the text written, still have to do the illustrations. Basically a bluffer's guide to Roman emperors (using that classics degree at last!)

I've got the anti-church issue of RGZ ready to send out now. Next is to put together 'I'm not like other girls' and then see what my potential perzine is like.<br />
<br />
Lots of post to go out this week too.
